"Take out this thorn for me."
The old woman took out the thorn and threw it away.
"Give me my thorn," and he began to cry.
"Take an egg."
He went to another old woman, "Hide me this egg."
"Put it in the hen's nest."
In the night he took his egg and ate it. The next day he said to the old woman: "Give me my egg."
"Take the hen," she answered.
He went to another old woman, "Hide my hen for me."
"Put her on the stake to which I tie my he-goat."
